Mexican-Sourced, -Made Gum Co. Seeks Funds

Austin, TX — Non-GMO, vegan and biodegradable Real Good Gum, sourced and produced in Mexico, is launching a campaign on crowd-funding website indiegogo.com to raise money for the venture.

Real Good Gum, made with six ingredients, comes in 15-ct packs and is available in mint, bubble and fruit flavors. Packs are illustrated with a different Lucha Libre Mexican wrestling mask for each flavor.

The company reports: “Real Good Gum is handcrafted by gum artisans from family-run businesses that have harvested chicle to make chewing gum. It’s sustainable and has a small carbon footprint. In addition, they plan to plant trees throughout the area to give back to the communities in which they work.”

As of Sept. 18, the company has raised $955 of its $10,000 goal. The campaign ends October 22.
